however we are required by law to abide by the civil service process to ensure that hiring is non diskrom tory. we believe in some cases the stability offered by a civil service job can be an attracting recruiting feature. we agree that more flexibility is needed and that's why we asked human resources to see how we can make that possible. we don't believe a charter amendment is needed and we believe a solution can be found. we also do not believe that the role of the cio and the director of department of technology need to be separated. many departments -- the department head focuses on external issues and deputy focuses on the day-to-day operations. we do not want an admin code to tie our hands with this decision. we want the flexibility to consider the individuals in these roles and their ability to determine the proper structure for the city and the department and these individuals. we also do not believe there needs on to be a formal reporting relationship. as with many central administrative functions like human resources or finance there is a central body with policy making authori

legislation that lowers the bond requirement for those operators that comply with all state and local laws and have met their financial obligations for the proceeding three years. we believe that this legislation, after working closely with the treasurer and tax collector, struck the right balance in protecting the city, but also helping small businesses in particular in this industry. so, i look forward to this being discussed in committee and to having a stantive dialogue at the board of supervisors. and again, i want to thank hillary ronan from my staff as well as our treasurer and his staff for all the work that has been going into this for quite some time. the last point that i want to make is to address something very serious that has been happening in my district, and specifically within district 9 in the mission district. as some of you may have read in the paper or heard, there has been an increase in violence in the mission and it's something that we take very seriously. unfortunately, most of the incidents that have occurred have been gang related, which makes it very serious. a
